Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas, sliced
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 box yellow cake mix (plus ingredients listed on the box: usually eggs, oil, and water)
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
- Make the caramel topping: Pour melted butter into the cake pan. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the butter.
- Arrange bananas: Lay the sliced bananas on top of the sugar mixture in a single layer. Sprinkle with cinnamon and a pinch of salt if using.
- Prepare cake batter: In a bowl, prepare the yellow cake mix according to the box instructions.
- Assemble: Pour the cake batter gently over the bananas and spread evenly.
- Bake: Bake for 35–40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Invert: Let the cake cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes. Run a knife around the edge, then place a serving plate on top and carefully flip it upside down.
- Serve warm: Slice and enjoy the gooey, golden goodness!
